KUP Budan House - Alwarpet

It was my first visit to KUP, beautiful ambience, very aesthetic and great service, staff were very sweet. The variety of beverages, especially coffee is surreal. A real haven for caffeine lovers. Food was good too, but strongly recommended them to increase the portion size of the foods. Value for money would be better with bigger portions, taste is good though. Definitely Cafe worthy of a visit.

It has a young vibe. Graced by couples and soft music, Kup is housed in a small lane. Thankfully, there's valet parking but the car is parked some distance away because it took time to arrive when we finished. Smart posters and out of the box thinking on discounts - do a 1000 steps and get a free peach tea or if you know who the owner is ( you have to provide proof!) you get 10% off. Light grey walls and some startup founder busily coding in the verandah. We were a little lost when we walked in because there's no billing counter. Or anyone to guide us. The cafe was full but a table opened up in a few minutes and we settled in. There's a lot to go through on the menu. We went for the Tamilnadu Podi fries. Thankfully, little oil and crisp on the outside Calcutta Paneer Chow, a new introduction had little cubes of browned paneer in the gravy. The long grain rice soaked in the gravy went well together. Ordered an open Paneer Burji Sandwich. A little bland and again, not the typical spicy flavour. The Peach Ice tea and Mocha were fine. It appears to be a popular place and the ambience, the decor and the furnishings are all well put together Lots to experiment with and we should give Kup a few more tries for sure

We were on the look out for place to work while having a quick snack and we’re glad we happened on this place. Spacious for us to plop our laptop and work. We had the roasted hazelnut coffee, Tamil Nadu fries, biscoff lotus shake, matcha tea and the Mr and Mrs Pesto open toast. No complaints. Absolutely loved the food. And I loved the fact that we didn’t have to interact too much with others as the service was all no contact from ordering to paying. Highly recommend.

The food was absolutely amazing and full of flavor! Loved the warm and attentive service, and the vibes of the place made the experience even better. The quality truly stands out – highly recommend this spot!

I love their ambience and food. However, their consistency is a little off compared to their other outlet. But during this current visit whatever we ordered was delicious. The staff is very courteous and prompt with their service.
